If only that were true. Most foamies I've watched can perform negatives with "ease" while very few can make positives look "good". Not sure why that is, could be set-ups or pilot inputs, don't know.

I have also found a negative snap is easier with most foamys than a positive... if you actualy want it to look like a real snap... I can't wait to see the aresti.

this year will be allot of fun I hope that everyone who was invited can make it. It will make for a really great show.

This is the World Indoor Championship. The sequence looks like it was drawn for a plane that can't do a positive snap.

Hey guys,

Ok so to be sure- the 3/4 turn on the "goldfish", figure 2, must be "pushing", correct? And that means that figure 7, the 3/4 horizontal 8, should be "pulling", right?

And on the tailslide, after the slide and "flop", the plane must enter a vertical dive before exiting, correct?

I'm glad the ETOC gym has a higher ceiling than in my practice gym...

Hi RJ,

Congrats on getting into the competition. I will get your name on the official list today or tomorrow.

Your questions regarding the sequence are all correct.
Pushing, Pulling, vertical dive.

Also, I need your e-mail address.
